A Public Health Crisis
People in recovery have
a higher prevalence of
diabetes:
• Lifestyle factors
• Psychiatric medications
that cause blood sugar
disorders
• Complicated illness
- doctors & patients often
unsure of what’s behind
poorly controlled glucose
People with diabetes are
at-risk for developing:
Hypertension
Hyperlipidemia
Heart disease
Kidney disease
Gum disease/loss of teeth
Nerve damage/loss of feet
Eye disease/becoming
blind
• Costs are 2.4 times greater;
nearly 40% of costs due to
long-term complications.

Use of a Registry to Manage Care for Diabetes in Integrated
Health Clinics for Adults with Serious Mental Illnesses
Judith A. Cook, PhD, Principal Investigator
Introduce a diabetes registry to:
1. Improve care delivery
full adherence to ADA standards of care
develop new treatment & service resources
2. Enrich care coordination
link clients to needed specialty care in accordance
with ADA standards
teach clients about diabetes and its complications
3. Better monitor health indicators and outcomes over time

What is a Diabetes Registry?
Database with demographics,
illness characteristics, treatment
delivered, and specialty care
arranged/delivered
Information from electronic and
paper records guides care,
tracks outcomes, and informs
plans for improving care
Supports proactive care by
facilitating care planning,
sharing of information with
other providers, and generating
patient reminders
Generates charts and graphs
to support illness selfmanagement
Generates reports to monitor
team and system
performance
Overall goal is to improve
adherence to treatment
guidelines and selfmanagement

How are data entered?
Different options depending on resources:
1. Clinicians enter data manually themselves during
or after visits
2. Clinicians complete diabetes encounter forms,
which are sent to a central site for data entry that
is supported by a registry project
3. Care coordinators obtain information for the
registry from patient records after each visit
4. Clinicians complete diabetes encounter forms,
which are given to the Care Coordinator to enter
into the registry

Why Registries for Standards of Care?
One electronic database
contains data from multiple
sources to inform complex
disease processes
Quickly focuses effort on
better managing chronic
disease at population level
Can be used by multiple
parties (clinicians, patients,
administrators) to facilitate
care delivery while meeting
care standards
(Ortiz, 2006)
Jonikas, Glover, & Cook, 2014
www.cmhsrp.uic.edu/health/
Registries and Patient-Centered Care
Allows clients to see their test
results related to 1 or more
conditions all in one place
Permits clients to share
current results with specialists
and other providers for
safer/better care
coordination and outcomes
Helps clients track their
own results over time,
assess personal
improvements, and
identify areas of concern
Enables clients to
compare their test results
and health outcomes
with those of peers or the
general population
Jonikas, Glover, & Cook, 2014
www.cmhsrp.uic.edu/health/
Why Registries for Care Coordination?
Allows for identification
and monitoring of clients
with a specific need within
a clinic or across clinics
Fosters individual disease
management through
notifications of abnormal
test results, missed
appointments, and up-todate information on client
encounters
Promotes use of evidence-
based and values-driven
care
Puts the focus on the needs
and progress of high-risk
clients to manage limited
resources (client & clinic)
Facilitates health outcomes
management at both the
individual and clinic levels
(Hummel, 2000)

Population Studies using a Diabetes Registry
Improving Diabetes Care in a Large Health Care System:
An Enhanced Primary Care Approach
Sperl-Hillen, et al. (2000). Joint Commission Journal on Quality and
Patient Safety
Improved glycemic and lipid control among approximately 7,000
adults with diabetes.
The Impact of Planned Care and a Diabetes Electronic
Management System on Community-Based Diabetes Care:
The Mayo Health System Diabetes Translation Project
Montori et al. (2002). Diabetes Care.
Registry use augmented the impact of planned care on
performance outcomes (increased use of specialty medical care)
and certain metabolic outcomes. Did not impact glucose levels.

Electronic diabetes registry in 7 clinics in NY
With educational module on the registry and patient communication
With each quarter post-Registry, patients were:
• 1.4 times more likely to have A1C ≤ 9
• Almost twice as likely to have LDL < 100
• 1.3 times more likely to have BP < 140/90
Likelihood of adherence increased over the initial quarters (except for BP;
adherence dipped over time). There was a drop-off among all indicators after
5 quarters, suggesting ongoing support and training are needed

Okay, but why not just use an Electronic Health Record?
Most EHRs are not built to function as registries, so
can’t support population-based care
It can take years for population reporting from an
EHR
A registry is relatively easy and inexpensive
• Can have nearly immediate impact on clinic practice and
client engagement & outcomes
It can be instructive to learn population-based care
parameters prior to implementing an EHR via a
registry
• Allows you to design EHR processes to support needs
identified by registry use

The Purpose of Our Registry
Introduced to:
→ Fully adhere to ADA standards of care by
improving care delivery and coordination
→ Link participants to specialty care in accordance
with ADA standards
→ Teach participants about diabetes and its
complications
→ Develop new treatment/service resources
→ Monitor health indicators and outcomes over time

The Collaboration
UIC College of Nursing staff operate the nurse-managed Integrated
Health Clinics (IHCs) where study participants received medical care.
At the time the initial study sample was drawn, the IHCs were serving
220 patients with co-occurring diabetes & mental illness.
Thresholds houses one IHC on Chicago’s north-side and one on
Chicago’s south-side. Thresholds provided community support and
linkage to Registry clients to help them attend the IHCs and specialty
appointments, and to self-manage their co-occurring conditions.
UIC Center on Psychiatric Disability and Co-Occurring Medical
Conditions staff built the registry which was populated with data on
the 220 patients; the UIC Center funded the study’s Care Coordinator
who liaisoned with IHC and Thresholds staff, focusing specifically on
increasing adherence to diabetes care standards.

Registry & Coordination Procedures to Impact on Outcomes
Patient-specific reports from
the registry were provided to
nurses prior to each patient
visit
helped orient them to the
most recent treatment(s),
upcoming tests or
appointments, and the
most pressing concerns
Patient education was
chosen from comprehensive
materials to address each
patient’s specific needs and
strengths at each visit
Patient education materials
were also shared with
community support workers
to reinforce this learning in
the community
Specialty care needs were
identified for each patient
Support given for each
client to see specialists, in
accordance with the ADA
standards of care
(including optometrist,
dentist, and podiatrist)

Preliminary Medical Outcomes
Changes in glucose management following introduction of the Registry
and Care Coordination:
The least controlled (i.e., poorest) A1c level during the pre-test years of
2010-2012 (N=205) averaged 7.97 per patient
A1c at the most recent visit during the post-test years of 2013-2014
(N=201) averaged 6.93 per patient
In other words, there was significant improvement from poorest to most
recent A1c, decreasing by 1 point on average (t=5.08, p<.001).
Every 1% improvement in A1c is associated with a 25% decrease in a
combined index of cardiovascular complications for people with type
2 diabetes (UK Prospective Diabetes Study Group, 1998).

Preliminary Medical Outcomes
Changes in total cholesterol and triglycerides following introduction of
the Registry and Care Coordination:
Worst total cholesterol (TC) during the pre-test years (N=197)
averaged 180 mg/dL per patient, while the average at post-test was
165 mg/dL (N=170) (t=3.5, p<.001)
Worst triglycerides level in pre-test years averaged 165 mg/dL per
patient (n=198), while the average at post-test was 143 mg/dL
(N=169) (t=2.2, p<.05)
The average TC and triglycerides showed significant improvement,
with lipids and triglycerides dropping by 27 or more points.

introduction of the Registry and Care Coordination:
Between 2010-2012, completed dental referrals had a percentage
increase of 500%
2.8% at pre-test, 16.6% at post-test (χ2 = 23.74, p < 0.001)
Between 2010-2012, completed optometry referrals had a percentage
increase of 65%
21% at pre-test, 35% at post-test (χ2 = 10.1, p < 0.01)
Between 2010-2012, completed podiatry referrals had a percentage
increase of 88%
15% at pre-test, 28% at post-test (χ2 = 11.3, p < 0.01)

Key Barriers to Registry Use
Shifting from
reaction to
prevention
Moving from
individual level to
population-based
care
Getting multiple
partners invested
Time to load and
maintain the
spreadsheet or
database
Measuring
performance can
be threatening
Just another fad?

Reflections and Next Steps
Registries, especially those in a simple Excel format, can quickly
focus attention on the needs of those clients who most require
integrated and coordinated care efforts
The role of the behavioral health case manager/support worker is
expanding to require expertise in medical management and
medical care coordination
Integrated patient education, health literacy, and selfmanagement are critical promotion and prevention approaches
Front-line and supervisory staff also benefit from employee health
and wellness programs
